Safranim shalom, Just the blurb describing the movie bothers me.
The words Holocaust and Nakbah should not be used together. There should not be the slightest hint of comparison. And why Nakbah "terror"? Is there a woman representing Palestinian terror? The trailer shows the Jews suffering under the Nazis and the Palestinians under the Israelis. How is Nakbah described? By the fact that Arab leaders did not accept the 1947 UN Partition Plan, and called for the Arab residents of the British Mandate of Palestine to leave temporarily while the Arab armies crush the newly declared Jewish State so they then can return? Or is Israel to blame for everything? Dialogue is good, but not when totally anti Israel. Be careful, check their website and who the people are behind this movie. I have not seen the movie, but from what I have seen and read on the internet, Israel is portrayed as the villain, facts are misrepresented, and the Land of Israel as the Jewish historical homeland misunderstood. I, personally, would not include this in my library. All the best, David David Elazar Rishon LeZion, Israel <mailto:mtev...@zahav.net.il>mtev...@zahav.net.il Home page <http://sites.google.com/site/mtevansco/>http://sites.google.com/site/mtevansco/ Weekly current events update <http://sites.google.com/site/mtevansco/Home/elazar-distribution---archive-1>http://sites.google.com/site/mtevansco/Home/elazar-distribution---archive-1 --- Messages and opinions expressed on Hasafran are those of the individual author and are not necessarily endorsed by the Association of Jewish Libraries (AJL) =========================================================== Submissions for Ha-Safran, send to: hasaf...@osu.edu SUBscribing, SIGNOFF commands send to: Listproc @ lists.acs.ohio-state.edu Questions, problems, complaints, compliments;-) send to: galron.1 @ osu.edu Ha-Safran Archives: Current: http://www.mail-archive.com/hasafran%40lists.acs.ohio-state.edu/maillist.html History: http://www.mail-archive.com/hasafran%40lists.acs.ohio-state.edu/history.html AJL HomePage http://www.JewishLibraries.org
